Timing is everything and that’s why most communication protocols require a very accurate clock source. The WS2811 LED strip controllers are no different. But [Danny] figured out a way to drive them ...

[Cunning_Fellow] published a post with three proof-of-concept approaches to driving a WS2811 LED pixel. We looked at a project early in December that used an AVR microcontroller to drive the RGB ...

Thanks to their versatility, commodity-level pricing and the eye-popping visual effects they create, programmable LED strips have become a staple ingredient for both Maker-style projects and more ...
